Ref a variable name field

[CRoberts]

I am processing a string of data that consists of x columns of info.

I want to set a field to the value of each column via a Loop, however, I don't know how to ref a field who's name is dynamically determined at runtime.

Example.

String=/this/is/my/string/of/text

set field "count" to number of "/" in string

x=1

Loop

set field column to middle(string,start,numberofchars)

ExitLoop is x is = count

EndLoop

I have a formula for extracting each column of text so i just need to assign the dynamic field.

TIA.

You can't directly set fields dynamically, but using Go to object you can get pretty close. See my recent post here.
